''The Eye and the Finger'' is a collection of Fantasy, Horror and Science fiction short stories by author Donald Wandrei. It was released in 1944 and was his first book published by Arkham House. 1,617 copies were printed. The stories had appeared previously in ''Weird Tales'', ''Esquire'', ''Argosy'', ''Astounding Stories'' and other magazines. They were selected by the author and were the ones he considered to be his best at the time. The dust jacket illustration is by the author's brother, Howard Wandrei. Don Herron quotes bookseller/publisher Roy A. Squires as saying that ''The Eye and the Finger'' is "one of the most difficult to find of Arkham House fiction titles - it was out of print in 1946." 〔Quoted in Don Herron, ""The Red Brain": A Study in Absolute Doom", ''Studies in Weird Fiction'' 2 (Summer 1987), p. 32, note 4.〕 The collection has never been reprinted in its original form, although all the stories are included in the Fedogan & Bremer omnibus collections ''Don't Dream: The Collected Fantasy and Horror of Donald Wandrei'' and ''Colossus: The Collected Science Fiction of Donald Wandrei''.〔 *〕 ==Contents== ''The Eye and the Finger'' contains the following short stories: # "Introduction" # "The Lady in Gray" # "The Eye and the Finger" # "The Painted Mirror" # "It Will Grow on You" # "The Tree-Men of M'Bwa" # "The Lives of Alfred Kramer" # "The Monster from Nowhere" # "The Witch-Makers" # "The Neverless Man" # "Black Fog" # "The Blinding Shadows" # "The Scientist Divides" # "Earth Minus" # "Finality Unlimited" # "The Crystal Bullet" # "A Fragment of a Dream" # "The Woman at the Window" # "The Messengers" # "The Pursuers" # "The Red Brain" # "On the Threshold of Eternity" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Eye and the Finger」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
